“I believe all of us in agriculture have a responsibility to facilitate
diversity through our attitudes toward each other. Through mutual
respect, curiosity, and the enjoyment of diversity, we can learn much
about ourselves as we seek ways to improve agriculture. We must buy
into the idea of diversity just as much as the institution.”

“What we eat and how it’s produced is something that affects everyone,
so it should involve everyone as well. People of all ages, races,
disciplines, and geographic locations should be at the table to ensure
that solutions we come up with will work for everyone.”
